With GreenPower Africa, we’re on a mission to make renewables Africa’s leading source of energy.
GreenPower Africa is developing energy systems to bring renewable energy to homes, businesses, cities and rural locations, in particular, improve living standards, increase employment and reduce the negative impact of current energy sources. Today, renewables are the world’s fastest growing, most affordable source of electricity. While the industry has changed dramatically over the last two decades, our commitment to renewable power has not. We believe renewable power is good for landowners, communities, power purchasers and their customers, and the environment. It is the future of African energy.
Your Trusted Partner To Deliver
We’ve built a reputation for integrity while bringing projects to successful completion and creating wins for all stakeholders. We have the experience and capability in structuring partnerships that deliver and arranging introducer agreements, portfolio deals, joint ventures and much more. Our seasoned team has deep expertise in working with our partners and investors in all aspects of developing, financing, constructing, and operating renewable power projects in Africa.
Who We Work With
We build long-term partnerships and win-wins for all stakeholders, including investors, developers and operators in the development, construction, operation and maintenance of renewable power projects. We firmly believe that the delivery of solar, wind alongside smart energy solutions will play a major role in the future of African energy.
Landowners
Harvesting the wind or sun provides landowners with a reliable and significant source of income to supplement farming or ranching. Because renewable energy is affected neither by drought nor fluctuations in agricultural commodity prices, landowners who work with us obtain a new source of revenue not tied to their agricultural operations. In the case of wind energy, there is minimal loss of farmland or ranchland. Farmers grow crops right up to the base of wind turbines, and sheep and cattle graze among and beneath the turbines.
Power Purchasers
Our end product is clean, cost-effective power delivered to the electricity grid. In some cases, our projects sell power to utilities or to commercial and industrial customers through power purchase agreements. In other cases, after we develop a wind or solar project, an electric utility purchases and owns the project, just as they would any other power plant, and uses it to generate power for their customers.
Local Communities
Renewable power projects have a beneficial impact on the urban and rural communities in which they are located. Hundreds of jobs are created during a project’s construction phase while associated economic activity results in added revenues for local businesses. In the operations phase, our projects create skilled maintenance jobs, offer sales and contracting opportunities for local businesses, provide a diversified income source to project landowners, and generate significant property tax revenues. In some cases, a large wind or solar project is the largest taxpayer in a local government area or county.
